I play the wind instrument in Hokkaido.

Upon hearing this, Yu Shou raised his head, his brows furrowing slightly, a hint of impatience flashing in his eyes:

"No matter who tells him to get lost, I don't have time for it."

The girls suddenly smiled at each other. Yu Shou was very popular with the opposite sex at school because of her stunning model figure.

They said in unison:

"It's Kitahara-sensei?"

She had been thinking that all handsome guys were annoying, but when that name reached her ears, Yu Shoujingli's face was instantly filled with shock.

Not only that, but Saito Haruka and Kanzaki Eri, who were in the same class, both looked up at the same time, but they didn't see Kitahara Hakuba at the door.

A flicker of panic crossed Yu Shou's eyes. She quickly got up and ran to them, complaining:

"Why all the beating around the bush! Just tell me sooner!"

The girls exchanged smiles, a hint of mischief and innocence in their eyes, and said, "We just wanted to see how you would react."

"What? What kind of reaction?!"

Yu Shou's face turned red, and she hurriedly walked outside, her pleated skirt swaying gently with each step.

Watching the girl walk away quickly, the other girls laughed even harder.

Saito Harutori sat in her seat, gently rubbing her right hand to examine her knuckles. When she looked at Eri, she noticed that Eri was already doing her homework with her head down.

In the corridor, Yu Shou had only taken a few steps from the classroom when he saw Kitahara Hakuba standing to the side waiting.

He only stayed in one place for a short while before a lot of girls gathered around him and started chatting.

When he smiled, his eyes curved slightly, like gentle crescent moons, and his whole being exuded a refreshing and natural aura.

It makes you want to get closer.

"Teacher Kitahara, I'm sorry I didn't come out right away. They didn't explain themselves clearly."

Yu Shou appeared nervous and flustered, her hands unconsciously twisting together behind her back. The blush and panicked expression created an adorable contrast with the girl's usual cool demeanor.

Kitahara Hakuba tilted his head in confusion. Had he not explained clearly? He had simply told them, "If Amemori is free, please ask her to come find me in the hallway."

How unclear could it possibly be?

Never mind, it's not important.

"It's alright." Kitahara Hakuba smiled slightly at her. "There's still some time before the morning meeting. If you have time, could you chat with me?"

"of course can."

Kitahara Hakuba bid farewell to the other girls and led Amemori to the classroom lounge.

"Have a seat," he invited.

"Thank you."

Yushou nodded. Apart from being called here by Principal Morimoto for a college entrance interview, she had basically never been here.

Kitahara Hakuma sat opposite her, his fingers interlaced as he gazed at her, a subtle, enigmatic smile playing on his lips.

"I heard from Principal Morimoto that Amemori wants to apply to Sapporo University?"

Yu Shou stood ramrod straight, his gaze fixed firmly on him as he said:

"Yes, I want to apply there."

"oh oh

Kitahara Hakuba opened and closed his mouth, feigning confusion, and said...

"But what I'm curious about is, Director Morimoto said that your grades are good enough for Hokkaido University, so why do you want to go to Sapporo University? Logically speaking, you should choose the top school that you are capable of attending."

Yu Shou's eyelashes trembled slightly, her gaze suddenly began to wander, and her long legs, exposed beneath her skirt, were tightly pressed together.

Seeing her fall silent, Kitahara Hakuba smiled and said:

"Both schools are in Sapporo, so there shouldn't be any idea of ​​attending the one closest to the school, right?"

Yu Shou's chest rose and fell slightly, and the voice that came from her soft little mouth was clear and strong:

"I want to become someone like you, Kitahara-sensei."

Her words were so firm that even Kitahara Hakuba was taken aback.

But he quickly realized what was happening and gave her a gentle smile:

"Does Yu Shou want to become a teacher like me?"

"No."

Rain Guardian's gaze was fixed on Kitahara Hakuba, his eyes showing no hesitation or wavering.

"I want to become a brass band advisor like Mr. Kitahara, someone who can change other people's lives."

The moment those words reached his ears, Kitahara Hakuba was unable to utter a sound.

In Yu Shou's eyes, he only changed the brass band's results. Does that mean he changed other people's lives?

However, everyone sees things through their own unique lens, refracting different colors and lights, and finding their own meaning in the process.

It's normal that Kitahara Hakuba can't understand it; his standards aren't absolute. That's precisely why this world is such a magnificent kaleidoscope.

"Oh, I see. I understand."

Kitahara Hakuma grinned, revealing his teeth.

"However, from a music teacher's perspective, Sapporo University's music education is definitely not as good as Hokkaido University's. If you hope to work in the music industry in the future, I recommend Hokkaido University."

Yu Shou blinked her bright eyes and looked at him calmly, saying:

"I want to study music at Sapporo University and then become the vice advisor of the brass band at Shin-Asahi High School."

Because he had mentally prepared himself for this, he wasn't too worried, but he still had to feign surprise on the surface.

"I'm sorry, but I have a question. It might sound a bit narcissistic, but is this the only criterion for Amemori applying to Sapporo University, or are there other factors to consider?"

If there are other reasons, Kitahara Hakuba will respect the student's wishes and let the matter drop.

Yu Shou took a deep breath and said seriously:

"No, I just want to be your junior. I would be honored if I could graduate from the same university as you."

Kitahara Hakuba cried out in his heart, "Please! Choose a school based on your own grades!"

No, I can't keep putting on a gentle face.

"Rain Guardian, do you remember what I said to you during the audition?"

Kitahara Hakuba's smile faded, and he looked at her with a serious expression.

Yu Shou's body stiffened abruptly. After spending about six months together, she already knew that Kitahara-sensei's current state meant he was serious.

"Yes, I remember everything."

She would never forget anything related to him.

At that time in the first music classroom, he smiled wryly at his absence from the trumpet soii, and after being asked why, a look of disappointment crossed his face.

“Amemori, as the principal of the brass band, I have always hoped that you could understand what I really think.”

Kitahara Hakuba's tone was gentle, yet carried an undeniable air of authority.

"I hope everyone can give full play to their abilities and strive for everything within their power. This may be an unrealistic hope of mine, but I have been working towards that goal."

Yu Shou's comprehension skills were quite good; she knew why Kitahara-sensei had come to see her this time.

Her fingers gripped the hem of her skirt tightly, as if suppressing the turmoil rising within her. Her voice, though soft, was clear and melodious:

"Does Mr. Kitahara think I should apply to Hokkaido University?"

"Is there even a question?" Kitahara Hakuba thought to himself.

"Yes, because I don't want you to suddenly regret not giving it your all three, five, or ten years from now, or why you didn't fight for it. People always have to live for themselves."

Kitahara Hakuba remained silent for a moment, then decided to wield the heavy stick of reality.

"Besides, how can you be sure that I will choose someone who graduated from Sapporo University to be my assistant advisor? By then, the Shin-Asahi Brass Band might become a prestigious school like Kyoto Tachibana, and there will be even more applicants. Logically speaking, Sapporo University is not qualified enough."

Faced with a very real problem, Yu Shou found himself in an awkward situation, a hint of hesitation flickering in his eyes.

Kitahara Hakuba let out a soft sigh and forced a smile, saying:

"Yu Shou, raise your head."

Yu Shou obediently raised her head, and a gentle expression appeared on the well-defined face of the advisor in front of her.

"As a teacher, I prefer girls who dare to strive and shine, rather than those who follow in my footsteps. You have to become extraordinary before I can see you."

His tone was calm, with a touch of unintentional warmth, as if it could soothe all anxiety.

A warm current surged through Yu Shou's body. His emotions far outpaced his reason, and the image of Yu Shou in his mind became more and more perfect.

She lowered her eyes gently, then nodded, her movements soft and compliant, like a flower swaying in the wind, with a touch of shyness and obedience.

"So, which university are you going to apply to now?" Kitahara Hakuba asked, just in case.

“Hokkaido University.” Her tone was serious.

"now it's right."

Kitahara Hakuma breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "If you are still willing to call me teacher after leaving Shenxu, I will always support you from behind."

Yu Shou's heart began to race; his words were like an invisible thread, gently tugging at her sensitive nerves.

This echoed the words he had said to comfort her after her failed campaign on the alternate account, when he had said something similar: "I will care about you from now on, don't give up, okay?"

"Yes!" Yu Shou's eyes were brimming with spring-like waves, and her gaze towards him was filled with undisguised deep affection.

Kitahara Hakuba, feeling the gaze so sweet it could drown him, took a deep breath, clasped his hands together, and said:

"That's settled then, good luck." He stood up, ready to lead her away.

"Teacher Kitahara: "

"

Yu Shou suddenly tensed up, looked up at him, and his eyes seemed to be covered with a thin layer of water.
